Royal Challengers Bengaluru will be up against Chennai Super Kings in the 68th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2024 at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on Saturday. With playoffs spot on the line, both of these two teams will want to bring their best and come up with a collective show.
